Happy 5th Birthday!

Today is my nephew's 5th birthday, and we celebrated yesterday with a motorcycle/dirt bike party at his house. He may not have been overly impressed with my handmade card, but he loved what was inside. ;)

My card base measured 5.5" by 10". To create the pocket, I folded up the short edge 1.5" so that the card base would measure 8.5" which I then folded in half. I used the Tommy paper pack for the candles and the inside pocket. The sentiment Hip-Hip-Hooray is from the Artiste Birthday set that comes with the Artiste CTMH Cricut collection. I just drew the candle flames with a Honey marker and then added some Almond Glitter Glitz Gel to give it a little sparkle. (I'm sure Will appreciated that!)

He definitely had a great birthday, and we are so glad to have him in our lives! Happy 5th birthday, Will!
